May 4, 5, and 6, 2026 –  NGC 2026 Convention – St. Louis, Missouri

The 250th Patriotic Photo Contest is just around the corner.  The deadline for the photos and applications has been extended to June 5th, 2026.  My hope is that the new deadline will make it possible for more entries to be submitted. I look forward to seeing all the submissions and to share them at the convention in June. Please see the Winter issue of the Montana Gardens for the QR code, which will take you to the application.  Then you will send the application and photo to me at cdcarlton@hotmail.com.
Thank you for your patience and participation.
